You can read up about it on sites like IGN.

I don't believe anything of it...

That it is technically NOT possible...
For video's and stills yes... for game-play, very big no...

In fact I even strongly doubt that the Madden picture is even computer generated. It is a promotional picture (I've seen it before btw), not a concept picture, it is a real photo and enhanced a bit with the computer.

The new PS3 is predicted to have a bit more graphic power then the PS2, but this is still far, far away from movie-like graphics in realtime game-play. Even the top-notch graphic cards from a PC can't handle that in realtime!

My point is, don't post such things in the way you did. As you can read from other people's posts, everybody thinks these are concepts of how it will look in realtime. This is however not the case! If you whish to share such info, at least link to the articles which explictly say that such stuff is wishfull thinking in the minds of the developers, so people understand what they see when they look at those graphics and put it in the right context...

A small example: look up how long it took and what they used to render 1 second of movie like Shrek (which is far from as realistic as that "concept" picture of Madden)... Also, making realistic looking humans like that on a computer is extremely difficult, or better 'impossible', in realtime. The top animators these days even have problems when they must do this for movies, which aren't realtime. There is a reason why computer generated humans in movies are extremely rare. And if they are included, they are viewed from a distance and only in very short shots.

Cookie - like I said, it's a CONCEPT shot.


It's basically a 3D rendering of what they'd like the game to look like -_-.

There is nothing 3D rendered about the pic from Madden, it is a real photo

Take a look at these shots from upcoming PS3 and Xenon games (they're in concept stages, but this is what the companies are driving for):



Madden:


Need for Speed:





Omg By the time the PS4 and Xbox 3 come out - there may be no line left o.O
